Well, we had a great rookie year and our team mascot is the Energizer Bunny. We wear pink bunny ears during our matches. Since we are a religously affiliated school, we have a big problem. The Rabbi won't let the students operate the robot on Saturday, so we need to recruit drivers from other teams to operate our bot. Since our school is new, our rookie team consisted of 6 students which was about 20% of the entire school body. We rotate drivers, operators, etc. so everyone gets a chance to play. We never give up. Our robot really was like the enegizer bunny. It kept going and scored 25 points in all but 1 of the qualifiers. We won the SVR Rookie all-star on the 1st day.

What makes our team special this year is that out team worked on our robots, we had no "professional help" (except for welding, and automode). We saw a lot of teams that had only adults work on their robot in the pit. We where proud of our robot each time it performed because it was our work.

We designed, machined and assembled everything with very very little adult help. We have 4 welds and 2 CNC pieces that were not done by the students. The only time engineers would step in is if we were really screwing up. We did auto mode ourselves too. You will never find adults working in our pit, or anywhere else really.

Team 25 bets against me each year! I lost the bet in 2000 and had my head shaved on Good Morning America as the result.

But it has grown back and is ready for another go if lightning strikes twice!!

What I want to know is how come my kids bet on my shaving or disfigurement!!!?

WC cool:

We're a SMALL team

Our team is unique in that it is one of the smallest teams in FIRST. We had about 3 students and 2.5 adults as "regulars" this year. We had 3 students and two adults at our regional. That should change next year, since we'll be in a new, and much larger school.

Lets see, what makes our team special. Umm, we ranked 33 out of 37 at Phoenix regional than were were finalists in LA. I am the only fifteen year old female welder for our team. We were national champions in 2001 but then did horribly in 2002. (Oh it was bad!) We have an open house every week. The senator of California came to visit us. We are the only team (as far as I know) to have a full out mural and every side of the crate, including the top.Click here to see pictures

We have a ten year old member that completely designed, built, and programmed a robot from the edurobotic kit all by himself. We have sophmore as a team captain..well soon to be sophmore, i am a freshman right now. No, the seniors weren't to happy about it. Don't think there is anything else.
